Microsoft Azure Fundamentals — Question 287

How many copies of data are maintained by an Azure Storage account that uses locally-redundant storage (LRS)?

Answer options

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 6
• D. 9

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as locally-redundant storage (LRS) in Azure maintains three copies of the data for redundancy within the same region. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they represent higher numbers of copies than LRS provides, which is specifically designed to keep three replicas for durability.
